[Suggestion] Slayer "Basic" armor is equivalent to steel... so why so expensive for the small slayer % bonus??

Perhaps make it something actually achievable before you're wearing rune armor then have to regress back to basically steel to farm slayer JUST so you can afford strong/elite. Maybe 2K for basic. Enough to actually get early on and provide actual defense you would be expecting around that stage.

To clarify been playing for like 3 days now and between all my gathering/crafting and combat I'm wearing mithril and doing all my combat in slayer and barely have 2K slayer points.... the idea of just grinding out another 18K just for 10% bonus isn't rational.

Edit: Yeah just did quick maths and it's 100K for the Strong Armor set.... so I would have to spend 20K just to wear crappy defense armor set while I tried to earn 200K to make back my 20K from the 10% bonus.... which doesn't even make sense when the next armor set is 100K... so you wouldn't even make back your 20K before upgrading. Except you could probably do a TON better on your slayer quests and knock them out faster if weren't wearing crappy basic steel slayer armor...

Edit 2: Maybe make a cape instead? At least can wear that until get a skill cape.

I'll have to look at where to get obsidian cape. But as I said the only combat I do is the slayer quests :\ Been doing nothing but them all day today hoping to grind them up and only at 12K and already up to Rune so not really feeling going back to steel defense at this point for the small % bonus. But would have been useful as an early armor option.
